    I read about this stuff for a looong time and resisted buying it. So many products and so many disappointments and then you have to return it or you are stuck with it, with your wallet a bit...

    In terms of Mascara base, nothing on earth at the moment can rival Shiseido the Makeup Mascara Base. Trust me I have tried Estee Lauder, Lancome in sample forms and none compares to Shiseido....

    I have long eyelashes, but as far as I'm concerned there is no such thing as too long when it comes to lashes. I don't like thick and clumpy looking lashes, as I think they look unnatural and a bit...

    This mascara base lives up to its hype. It is resistant to smudges and is waterproof. So much in fact it's difficult to remove, hence 1 lippy off. I have such a hard time removing this and in the...

    I purchased the Shiseido Base for two specific reasons: (1) help define and hold curl and, (2) help prevent mascara meltdown, smudges, etc. I was not seeking added length or volume. The Base...

    Wow, I love this. It gives me a lot of help, considering my short/straight/tiny eyelashes. It's a lot of fun to see it on my eyelashes as well - you can see the little bits of mascara base...

    I feel like a party pooper here, but I am not thrilled with this. It makes my lashes clumpy and hard. Also, it cakes on the applicator. I think using translucent powder works better and is much...

    Regarding makeup, I never called anything a Holy Grail until I tried this. It's just amazing for holding curl, adding length, and waterproofing any mascara you put over it. So far, I've tried it...

    So here's the deal. This expensive base paired with inexpensive mascara (i.e. maybelline full n soft) really does wonders. However, using one expensive mascara (i.e. lancome hypnose) by itself will...

    Holy Grail. This will keep the curl of any mascara you use. Personally I love this with Shiseido's Lasting Lift mascara. It's wonderful for smaller eyes too. If you have eye makeup remover,...
